OUR SPECIAL HARBOR

CHESSIE'S BIG BACKYARD

TREEHOUSE

If you like running through the sprinkler, you'll love Our Special Harbor
Sprayground at Lee District Park. The fully accessible complex
features Chesapeake Bay-themed attractions including a spraying osprey
nest, Chessie the sea serpent, misting sunflowers and a lighthouse. The
beach area is quieter with softer bubblers and interactive water
tables. The computerized water maze and dumping crab basket provide
more lively activity.

Children (15 years and younger) on the spray pad must wear aquatic
shoes or sandals at all times with an enclosed heel or strap on back to
keep secured to the feet. Non-standing/non-mobile babies are exempt.
Adults/parents/guardians, including employees, may wear flip-flops in
lieu of the above. Street shoes are not permitted on the spray pad. For
more information, check the Sprayground web
page.

In addition to the spraypark, the Family Recreation Area has a fully
accessible tree house, and a playground for children ages 5 to 12. The
playground, known as "Chessie’s Big Backyard," is fully
accessible and incorporates slides, swings and other equipment
specially designed for use by all children, including those with
special needs.
